    Default Importance of the IP ?

    Do you care about this matter ?

    How much importance would you say the IP of a site has ?

    I think it is quite important, especially if we are talking about link building part for a regional website.

    The IP of the site where you build your links should be in UK if you target UK results. Your website should be also hosted on an UK server in order to be more relevant for UK results pages.

    When developing your strategy how close do you watch these details ?

    For a regional site say building link for a .co.uk site or .ro site it does matter to some extent but I am not sure it matters a great deal.

    As you know I have a few .ro domain name, I do not have any links from a .ro site pointing to any of them, non of the site is hosted .ro but they rank quite well for keywords in Google.ro , one of my sites (hosting) velnet.ro used to rank number one for "web hosting" and "domain name" (In Romanian) in Google.ro a few years ago and the site is hosted in Germany, all the links are from UK or USA.

    I am sure things has changed a bit since then BUT the site still rank fairly well for many keywords, its still hosted in Germany and most of the backlinks are UK and USA.

    Maybe you should conduct a test about this Dks

    Yes, a test on this matter would be really interesting, yet the means to simulate the situations are not that easy to achieve.

    This forum can sponsor/finance and give you the resources required for the test if you have the time and set up the test in this forum.

    Thanks
